"The staff were great. When we checked in, they told us all the balloon rides for the next day in Goreme were cancelled. They got us onto one in the southern area. It turned out to be the only balloons that went anywhere the entire time we were Cappadocia. We appreciate our host so much for that!"
"Simply wow! This hotel is unlike any other—built into the rock formations with stunning views over Göreme and the morning hot air balloons. The cave-style room was spacious and beautifully designed, blending modern comforts with antique charm.
Navigating the winding stairs to the rooftop restaurant added to the adventure. Seten Restaurant was fantastic for both breakfast and dinner. The hotel also arranged incredible tours, including a hot air balloon ride and a visit to the underground city. Be sure to stay a few days—balloon launches depend on weather.
A truly unforgettable stay.

"We arrived very late but staff were very helpfull & guided us to our well-appointed cave room which we loved. The hotel is a beautiful stone building spread over several levels on the hillside with a pool and carious outdoor areas. Breakfast was good with the ability to order eggs or omlete to taste"

I highly recommend this place!"
